This is going to be one miserable week for my family...and here is why:

We had not heard from my Aunt and Uncle who live 200 miles away for at least 3 months or more, and tonight we finally got through to them by phone to find out what had been going on...and the outcome isn't what we expected either.

My Aunt had been feeling very poorly for a while, and had been back and forth to the doctors complaining about her neck, so they did some tests...
On Monday she went to the doctors to get her results.....she has been diagnosed with Cancer


My family are all in shock right now.......I feel so frustrated and sad at the same time at the moment, I really don't know what to do!


She went for an operation on Wednesday to have the lump removed, and she is starting Chemotherapy in a weeks time.....can I have some TCS vibes for her and her Husband please?

Thanks for listening, you guys are ever so caring!

Oh honey
I'm sorry for the terrible news. Many vibes and prayers going out to your aunt and your entire family. It is so hard being away from a person you love at a time like this. Do you know if the doctors caught it soon enough? If they were able to operate that actually is a good sign and usually means it's only in one spot and can be removed. Do you know what kind of cancer she is dealing with?

Thanks for the kind words guys, it means a lot to me


We find out some more news next week once the biopsy has been done on the lump, and we are all keeping our fingers crossed that the outcome is good. We just hope that it hasn't progressed too far...

Did I forget to mention that is throat cancer? I think someone asked me which type it was and I didn't say


Will keep you all informed!

I am so sorry to hear this
I think that a support group would definitely be helpful though and maybe it would be good for lots of useful information too


Many prayers and vibes headed that way!
